I'm pretty sure this - https://api.weather.gc.ca/ - is what you're looking for. It looks like they expose lots of data via an API, including the 7 day forecast.

For example this should be the Vancouver forecast - https://dd.weather.gc.ca/citypage_weather/xml/BC/s0000141_e....

I think this is the hourly data - though in a slightly odd format - https://dd.weather.gc.ca/nowcasting/matrices/

Edit: Aha found the nowcast docs - https://eccc-msc.github.io/open-data/msc-data/nwp_nowcasting...

Nice! That hourly data link ("*matrices") looks easy enough to parse. Thank you!
